- In developing a computational model of trust, this paper summarises the findings in a previous study exploring mutual gaze as a behavioural parameter of social trust and liking [1]. Drawing on the data collected in a related paper [6], which provides us with video clips of children interacting with a robot during a collaborative storytelling game, we look at the interactions between metrics assessing social trust and liking, and the development of mutual gaze as an objective measure of social trust and liking. We achieve this through several statistical analyses between the percent of mutual gaze in each interaction, scores from social trust and liking metrics, age of the participant, and duration. The findings of our study support the use of mutual gaze as an objective measure for liking, but there is still not sufficient evidence to support the use of mutual gaze as an objective measure to identify and capture social trust as a whole. Furthermore, interaction context impacts the amount of mutual gaze in an interaction, and the age of the participant has an impact on the amount of mutual gaze that occurs.

Exploring Multidimensional Trust : Shaping Child-Robot Creative Collaborations in Education
- 2023

Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- As trust plays a pivotal role in maintaining long-term interactions between children and robots, it is vital to comprehend how children conceptualise trust and the factors influencing their trust in robots. This thesis examines the impact of social robots' behaviours and attributes on children's trust, relationship formation, and task performance in collaborative educational scenarios. A systematic review of child-robot interaction (cHRI) literature identified two primary dimensions of trust: social trust and competency trust. The literature suggests a lack of consensus about how different robot behaviours and attributes affect these two dimensions of trust, as evidence points to different directions. To address these gaps, a collaborative storytelling game was developed to facilitate interactions between children and social robots, aiming to study trust dynamics and enhance learning by fostering children's creativity. The research also examined the impact of robot-related factors, such as behaviour and appearance, on children's interactions with robots. Empirical evidence suggests that while making robots look and behave more like humans is critical for competency trust and task performance, lower human-like attributes are more crucial for developing social trust and relationship formation with robots. Other factors, like time, provide insights into children's trust dynamics. Thus, this thesis explores the role of repeated interactions with artificial agents, indicating that children's competency trust in robots changes over time. This thesis offers significant contributions to the cHRI community. Firstly, it demonstrates that trust is a multidimensional construct that is complex to capture, highlighting the need for reliable, objective measures tailored to the task and intended trust dimension. Secondly, it emphasises the importance of balancing human likeness with social robots when collaborating with children in educational scenarios. Lastly, it proposes that to sustain trustworthy long-term interactions in education; social robots should adapt their behaviour to provide scaffolding, as children will be more inclined to rely on them for learning support as time progresses.

CRITTER : Child-Robot Interaction and Interdisciplinary Research

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Several recent works in human-robot-interaction (HRI) have begun to highlight the importance of the replication crisis and open science practices for our field. Yet, suggestions and recommendations tailored to child-robot-interaction (CRI) research, which poses its own additional set of challenges, remain limited. There is also an increased need within both HRI and CRI for inter and crossdisciplinary collaborations, where input from multiple different domains can contribute to better research outcomes. Consequently, this workshop aims to facilitate discussions between researchers from diverse disciplines within CRI. The workshop will open with a panel discussion between CRI researchers from different disciplines, followed by 3-minute flash talks of the accepted submissions. The second half of the workshop will consist of breakout group discussions, where both senior and junior academics from different disciplines can share their experiences of conducting CRI research. Through this workshop, we hope to create a common ground for addressing shared challenges in CRI, as well as identify a set of possible solutions going forward.
